Suppose a new permutation of 52 cards was drawn every second starting from The Big Bang (13.8 billion years ago) You wouldn't even be close • To count out all 52! permutations you would need 10⁵¹ ages of the universepic.twitter.com/7jhybDU59I

Here's my definition of a "well shuffled" deck (1) Throw all the cards up in the air (2) Now pick them up
Since people seem enjoy this, here's a short list I came up with • Everything on this list has roughly the same probability as two randomly shuffled decks being in identical orderpic.twitter.com/d297Cddboj
Would like to see a more realistic proof of this; People shuffle much much more than 1 deck per second, I would set the baseline at 1million shuffles per minute, up from 60.
even if you change the rate to 10^6/min all you'll do is knock off 9 orders of magnitude (at best) and still not even make a dent
Meeting a date soon. This has to get me laid!!
it wont i promise
Are you sure that in real life you can have perfectly shuffled deck of cards? I doubt it very much.
absolutely
How many shuffles does it take to go from a totally sorted deck to one that has probably never existed?
just one good one
